I am selling a  RHD 1985 Defender 110 County Station Wagon, with its original 2.5 liter diesel engine and five speed LT-77 gearbox.  Originally from Wales. Power steering, power brakes, original brown tweed interior, original rear bench seats.   Original paint with County livery, starts and runs well, good overall condition for the year, not a restoration or rebuild.   Has a lot of character, meaning a few dings and dents, faded paint, interior in decent shape.  Missing one rear bench seat bottom cushion.   Chassis is in overall very good condition, with a newer rear crossmember, and two new front outriggers.  Has a spare rim but no tire, and the jack. Front brush guard is older, with a few spot of rust. brand new shocks and heavy duty springs.   Bulkhead has a few spots on it that may need attention, but they do not affect the driveability or overall integrity.   Doors are ok, but will need attention at some point down the road, but function correctly as she now stands.   Engine purrs like a kitten, and the gearbox goes through the gears smoothly with no jumping out of gear, and no crunching.   Electrics all work correctly, incl gauges, etc.  Rear door was replaced at some point, and is very solid.   Dash is in good condition, as are the seats, still in very good condition.   Power steering works correctly, and does not leak, no binding or catching.   Tires are in fair condition.  Engine bay is in good order, with brand new radiator.  Charging system works correctly.    This is a great Defender for the price, and as with all things British and old, would be best suited to someone with a bit of experience with Brit quirkiness.   This is a Defender that is currently being driven on a somewhat daily basis, and it runs beautifully.  The 2.5 liter diesel four is one of the best engines Land Rover produced, not to be confused with the 2.5T turbocharged version, which had a tendency to detonate.   Not a speed demon, but perfect for your cabin or lake house.   The Defender is currently in the Hamptons in Sag Harbor for the Summer, where it is being used as a runabout when I am there. I can also arrange delivery door to door.  Also, please be aware that this is not a rebadged, re-vinned newer model Defender, it is just about completely original (save the Discovery rims) and has all the requisite patina that is to be expected.  The chassis number matches the number on the VIN plate.  I received neg feedback from someone who purchased a vehicle we sold, who thought they were buying a restored vehicle.   You are not buying a restoration, and you are not paying upwards of $100K for a leather clad, new paint, electric window, air conditioned 2010 Defender that is being passed off as an '80's model. It is simply a well looked after Defender that was not used off road or on a farm. Please ask questions before buying, I have over 20 years experience with these vehicles.  We can also arrange delivery door to door, at buyers expense.   Comes with a clean Pennsylvania title, and we can provide a 30 day transit tag if you want to drive it home.  Call for full details, 215-426-2748.
